I liked Horus Rising, even though it not much about the heresy happened in it [more of a regular SM book in the 30th millennium]

Problem is, Dan Abnett writes space marines as they should be.

Which, in all honesty, is kind of boring.

I'd suggest the two Hammer and Bolter collections. There's pretty much every faction represented across the pair, and even the WFB stuff is really good if you like that setting or Fantasy in general. There's a lot of standalone but also some continuous plots, like several awesome short stores featuring the Silver Skulls chapter, which I believe then continues in a novel by the same author.

Both anthologies are well worth a read.

Don't.
